Abstract: An electric switching device for an implantable hearing aid is disclosed. The device automatically, directly or indirectly activates the power consumption for an implantable hearing aid when an outer sound processor is installed on the patient and turns off/reduces the power consumption when the sound processor is removed.

Abstract: An electrical network for driving electromagnetic bone conduction vibrator/transducer of variable reluctance type which is applied between the vibrator terminals and the power amplifier terminals so that the vibrator mechanical output is maximized in the mid and high frequencies.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a new topology of a balanced variable reluctance transducer where magnets are moved to a lateral position relative to the dynamic flux circuit. This makes the whole transducer considerably smaller and the air gaps become fully visible from the outside.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for producing alkali metal chlorate in an electrolytic cell that is divided by a cation selective separator into an anode compartment in which an anode is arranged and a cathode compartment in which a gas diffusion electrode is arranged. The process comprises introducing an electrolyte solution containing alkali metal chloride into the anode compartment and an oxygen-containing gas into the cathode compartment. The invention also relates to an electrolytic cell for the production of alkali metal chlorate comprising a cation selective separator dividing the cell into an anode compartment in which an anode is arranged and a cathode compartment in which a gas diffusion electrode is arranged. An inlet for electrolyte solution and an outlet for electrolysed solution are provided in the anode compartment and an inlet for introducing oxygen-containing gas is provided in the gas chamber.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an electromagnetic vibrator of variable reluctance type, according to a new principle which provides higher efficiency, smaller dimension, and higher reliability compared to known technology. This has been obtained by that the magnetic signal flux generated by the coil is closed through a bobbin body and one or more yokes, and wherein the bobbin body and the yokes are made of laminated metal sheets having good magnetic properties.

Abstract: The invention relates to a construction for ventilation of hydrogen gas comprising at least a first metallic layer (1), sensitive to hydrogen embrittlement, a second (2) metallic layer, and a mesh (4), wherein the first layer (1) is joined to the second layer (2), and said mesh (4), forming venting channels (5) through which channels (5) hydrogen can be vented, is joined to, and in between, said first (1) and second (2) metallic layers. The invention further concerns a method for production thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a percutaneous bone anchored transferring device and a connecting device for obtaining a transfer of an electrical signal and/or energy and/or distribution of a drug and/or airing of a body cavity and a system and a method for using the same.
